The 10 Strangest Science Stories of 2016
The 10 Strangest Science Stories of 2016

INTRO : Strange science
News of alien planets, strange sounds from the seafloor and a bizarre new state of matter turned 2016 into a strange year, scientifically speaking.
The weirdest discoveries of 2016 ran the gamut from relatively academic (unexpected discoveries in quantum physics) to very relevant to daily life on Earth (the Arctic's unusual, melty behavior).
Here's a rundown of the oddest and most surprising scientific discoveries of the past year.

1. Light's new momentum
The speed of light (186,000 miles per second, or 299,792 kilometers per second) hasn't changed, but a report in May revealed that another of light's basic properties might not be as basic as scientists once believed.
While doing some calculations based on a 200-year-old discovery, physicists at Trinity College Dublin found that light particles — photons — weren't behaving as they should. When shone through particular crystals in order to force the light beams into a hollow tube of light, the photons spun at an angular momentum of one-half of Planck's constant. Planck's constant is one of those basic numbers in physics. It determines the relationship between a wavelength of light and its energy.
What surprised physicists is that photons shouldn't be able to spin at a speed that's one-half Planck's constant. All photons are supposed to spin at speeds that are whole-number values of Planck's constant (twice Planck's constant, or three times Planck's constant, but not half of Planck's constant). Another class of particles, fermions, can spin at fractions of Planck's constant.
"Our result shows that we can make beams of photons, which behave like fermions — a completely different form of matter," Trinity College physicist Kyle Ballantine told Live Science at the time.
The finding doesn't mean that quantum physics is wrong, the researchers said, but it does mean that something about light works differently than they'd thought.

2. Echoes in the atmosphere
In 1962, researchers at the Jicamarca Radio Observatory in Peru noticed something weird: Some of the radio waves they were beaming into space were bouncing back. It was as if there were some sort of reflector in the upper atmosphere, about 80 to 100 miles (130 to 160 kilometers) up. But the reason for the echoes remained a mystery until 2016. It took supercomputers to solve it. Researchers simulated the upper atmosphere and found that the echoes owe their existence to the sun. When sunlight hits the ionosphere, where the echoes originate, they strip electrons from the molecules in that atmospheric layer. The resulting, highly energetic charged particles zip through the masses of cooler particles around them, causing those cooler particles to vibrate like strings on a cello. The vibrations aren't particularly organized, the researchers said, but they create a low-level "froth" that's strong enough to bounce back the Jicamarca radio waves.

3. Ancient reptile with an anteater claw
Two hundred million years ago, a chameleon-like reptile named Drepanosaurus roamed the land. Paleontologists first found the fossils of the 1.6-foot-long (0.5 meters) reptile in Italy in the 1970s, but it wasn't until this year that they realized just how strange this animal really was.
The weirdness is all in the arms. New fossils found in New Mexico revealed Drepanosaurus' front limbs in three-dimensional detail for the first time. Unlike all other four-limbed creatures (known as tetrapods), Drepanosaurus had a crescent-shaped ulna — one of the bones of the forearm.
Tetrapods generally follow the same body pattern: Each of their front limbs has an upper-arm bone (the humerus) and two lower-arm bones (the ulna and radius). Drepanosaurus' version of these bones was unlike anything scientists had seen before. The lizard also had abnormally long wrist bones.

4. Dancing electrons in a new form of matter
It's not every year physicists discover a new form of matter, but 2016 was one of those years.
To be specific, the researchers actually created the new form of matter by bombarding sheets of alpha ruthenium chloride with neutrons. This created something called a Kitaev quantum spin liquid, which looks solid — you could hold a chunk of it in your hand — but contains electrons that dance about as if they were in a liquid.
Physicists had theorized about quantum spin liquids for decades. One of those theorists, Alexei Kitaev of the California Institute of Technology, predicted a form of matter in which the electrons would interact as if they were Majorana fermions, a type of particle that acts as its own antiparticle (a particle of the same mass but an opposite charge). Scientists at Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Tennessee decided to test this theory and found that their neutron-bombarded alpha ruthenium chloride did in fact behave in this way.
In the new form of matter, the orientation (or spin) of the electrons affects the orientation of other electrons, but these electrons still remain chaotic no matter how cold the material becomes, the researchers reported. The electrons don't actually fragment into particles and antiparticles as in Majorana fermions, but their spin interactions make it look as if they do, so researchers call them "quasiparticles." The material might be useful for increasing the reliability of quantum computing.

5. A brand-new neighbor
Earth may have had a next-door neighbor all along. This August, scientists announced that they'd detected a tiny disturbance in the light coming from Proxima Centauri, the closest star to Earth besides the sun.
The disturbance indicates the presence of a planet in the red dwarf star's habitable zone, meaning life could theoretically exist there. Models based on the planet's distance from its star and its mass (1.3 times that of Earth's) suggest that it might have an atmosphere and be entirely covered by a deep ocean, which would be potentially amenable to life. But there are multiple theories about the planet's atmosphere and environment and little hard data, so aliens are far from a foregone conclusion.
As of Dec. 1, astronomers have confirmed the existence of 3,431 exoplanets, or planets outside Earth's solar system, according to the NASA Exoplanet Archive. Two hundred and ninety-seven confirmed or suspected planets in the habitable zones of their stars have been discovered so far, according to the Archive.

6. Strange red spot
Closer to home, a big red spot festoons the north pole of Charon, Pluto's largest moon. In September, researchers announced that they'd figured out where this colorful blemish comes from: Pluto's atmosphere.
Pluto is a tiny planet, and since it doesn't have a strong gravitational pull, its atmosphere radiates out into space. When the New Horizons spacecraft flew by Pluto and its moons in 2015, the red spot on Charon was immediately apparent. Scientists thought that it might be a result of the moon gravitationally capturing some of Pluto's lost atmospheric gases.
By modeling the temperatures Pluto and Charon over time, the researchers confirmed their hunch. Charon's winters last more than 100 Earth years, and they are frigid — temperatures hover around absolute zero (minus 459.67 degrees Fahrenheit, or minus 273.15 degrees Celsius). Methane from Pluto's atmosphere gets frozen at Charon's frigid poles. There, cosmic radiation strips away the hydrogen from the methane, leaving only carbon behind. These carbon atoms link up to create incredibly complex organic compounds called tholins, which make up Charon's red spot.
7. One odd head
Throughout history, some cultures have gone to extreme lengths for beauty, including practices that involved flattening or reshaping the skull. The skull of a woman from Korea's ancient Silla culture appeared to have come by its odd shape naturally, though.
Anthropologists reported their strange find in June after excavating the skeleton of a woman from a traditional burial site near Gyeongju, the capital of the Silla Kingdom (57 B.C. to A.D. 935) on the Korean peninsula. The woman, who died in her late 30s, had an elongated head, with its length being more than 75 percent of its width, the researchers reported. The term for this head shape is dolichocephalic.
It's plausible that the people who inhabited Silla performed cranial shaping, the researchers told Live Science, but the woman's bones showed no signs of flattening or of compensatory growth on the side of the skull — which is usually seen when boards or bricks are used to alter the skull of a baby or growing child. It's likely, they concluded, that the woman's head was just part of a normal variation. [See Images of the Long-Headed Woman's Facial Reconstruction]

8. Unprecedented heat in the Arctic
It's been a strange year at the North Pole. Temperatures have hit all-time highs (the North Pole was 36 degrees F, or 20 degrees C, above normal in November 2016). And ice hasn't expanded in the winter season as it usually does when the temperature dips. This December, data from the National Snow and Ice Data Center showed that the Arctic was missing a chunk of sea ice the size of Mexico — and that sea ice had actually retreated in November. The ice declined by 19,300 square miles (50,000 square kilometers), vastly outpacing the only other November ice retreat ever seen, which is a loss of 5,400 square miles (14,000 square km) in 2013. Ultimately, the November sea-ice extent ended at 753,000 square miles (1.95 million square km) below the 1981-to-2010 long-term average for the month, the NSIDC reported.
In some ways, the warm temperatures and lack of ice aren't surprising. Scientists have long known that the Arctic is particularly vulnerable to climate change, and the region is warming twice as fast as the rest of the world, on average. At current rates of warming, scientists expect that the Arctic will be ice-free in midsummer by the middle of the century.

9. Sticky traps made of … pee?
The larvae of a cave fungus gnat (Arachnocampa) are well-known weirdos. They glow, for one thing — thus, their common name, glowworms — and they also live in tubes that are made of mucus.
Glowworms are also responsible for great beauty: They form long, sticky "fishing lines" of silk and mucus that they cast from cave ceilings to capture insects, millipedes, snails and other prey. Recently, scientists found out that glowworms' strangeness goes even deeper. These silken fishing lines get their shimmer from urea, the major ingredient in pee.
A team led by University of Vienna researchers ventured into two caves on New Zealand's North Island and painstakingly collected more than 4,000 sticky, unwieldy glowworm threads. They found that the threads contain crystals that are made partly of urea, which seems to be produced in the glowworm gut (they spin the threads through their mouths). The urea attracts moisture from the air, causing droplets to condense on the threads. Lit by the blue-green bioluminescence of the glowworms, these droplets create a fairyland atmosphere in cave tunnels, and apparently prove irresistible to creeping cave critters.

10. A noisy deep-sea mystery
Let's end the year on a mysterious note: Ping.
That’s the noise coming from the seafloor in the far-north Nunavut region of Canada … and no one knows why. In November, Canadian officials admitted that they had no idea what was causing the ping, which had been heard in the Fury and Hecla strait. Military patrols sent to the area found no anomalies, but hunters say that the noise is driving wildlife away. Some people blame the pinging on the mining activities of local companies or Greenpeace, but those companies as well as the activist group said that they weren't operating in the region. The government said it had no plans for further investigations.
Thousands of miles away, though, a second sea-sound mystery may have been solved. Researchers who were taking recordings in the Mariana Trench near Guam detected an otherworldly noise — a cross between moaning and twanging — during robotic vehicle dives in 2014 and 2015. This December, they reported that the bizarre noises may be the cries of a minke whale, an elusive type of baleen whale that's rarely seen at the surface. Researchers said in a statement that they don't know much about minke whale activity around the Mariana, or what the call might mean. [Listen to the New Whale Call from the Mariana Trench]
"If it's a mating call, why are we getting it year-round? That's a mystery," Sharon Nieukirk, senior faculty research assistant in marine bioacoustics at Oregon State University, said in a statement. "We need to determine how often the call occurs in summer versus winter, and how widely this call is really distributed."
For as long as humans have had consciousness — two or two hundred millennia depending on who you ask — human scholars have made great efforts to understand and define what that means. The most facile and purely conceptual description of consciousness might be that it is an awareness of the self within the context of the world. But without an understanding of the underlying mechanism, consciousness keeps chasing its tail. This is, in part, why neuroscientists have successfully interjected themselves in the ongoing conversation about consciousness by pointing to physical phenomena within the brain. But linking the metaphysical to the physical still results in the sort of quasi-scientific, quasi-philosophical overreach that gets academics laughed out of faculty lounges and labeled eccentric.
No wonder we’re struggling to understand whether the artificial intelligences we build are conscious. No wonder the Turing Test increasingly falls short of providing the sort of answers we require.
Because we cannot prove artificial consciousness, many engineers and experts are reflexively dismissive of the idea. But Jürgen Schmidhuber is not many engineers or experts and he’s fine playing the eccentric. He’s 53 years old and has been working on A.I. since the 1980s, which is why traces of his pioneering work in the field are surface in Google, Apple, Microsoft, and IBM products. A professor of A.I. at Switzerland’s University of Lugano, scientific director of the Swiss A.I. Lab IDSIA, and president of NNAISENSE (pronounced “nascence”), a startup that aims to build the first practical general purpose A.I., Schmidhuber believes that some current A.I. systems are already conscious. He believes he helped engineer it, which is both why he can come across as self-aggrandizing and why he’s one of the most interesting figures in a growing field.
The irony of Schmidhuber’s positions is that if he turns out to be right, his belief will likely be retroactively validated by some future hyperconscious A.I.. Schmidhuber may be one of the few people on the planet ready to actively empathize with A.I. so Inverse asked him what he sees in the programming that other people miss and what — if anything — that has to do with human consciousness.
Jürgen Schmidhuber at the International Health Forum, 2015.
What, in your mind, is the role of artificial intelligence in our future?
All of intelligence — human or artificial — is about problem solving. For a long time, we have been trying to build general problem solvers that not only can solve one little problem here and another over there, but many different problems. [Problem solvers that can] learn new skills on top of previously learned skills, always adding new skills to the repertoire in an unlimited way, becoming more and more general problem solvers. Of course, to the extent that we succeed, this is going to change everything, because every computational problem, every profession, is going to be affected by this.
You claim that some A.I.s are already conscious. Could you explain why?
I would like to claim we had little, rudimentary, conscious learning systems for at least 25 years. Back then, already, I proposed rather general learning systems consisting of two modules.
One of them, a recurrent network controller, learns to translate incoming data — such as video and pain signals from the pain sensors, and hunger information from the hunger sensors — into actions. For example, whenever the battery’s low, there’s negative numbers coming from the hunger sensors. The network learns to translate all these incoming inputs into action sequences that lead to success. For example, reach the charging station in time whenever the battery is low, but without bumping into obstacles such as chairs or tables, such that you don’t wake up these pain sensors.
The agent’s goal is to maximize pleasure and minimize pain until the end of its lifetime. This goal is very simple to specify, but it’s hard to achieve because you have to learn a lot. Consider a little baby, which has to learn for many years how the world works, and how to interact with it to achieve goals.
Since 1990, our agents have tried to do the same thing, using an additional recurrent network — an unsupervised module, which essentially tries to predict what is going to happen. It looks at all the actions ever executed, and all the observations coming in, and uses that experience to learn to predict the next thing given the history so far. Because it’s a recurrent network, it can learn to predict the future — to a certain extent — in the form of regularities, with something called predictive coding.
For example, if you have a video of 100 falling apples, and all of these apples always fall down in the same way, you can learn to predict how they fall down, and what you can predict, you don’t have to store separately, which means that you can compress the entire video to a much smaller number of bits.
A photo from 1963 of Jürgen with his father, Johann Schmidhuber, playing chess.
As the data’s coming in through the interaction with the environment, this unsupervised model network — this world model, as I have called it since 1990 — learns to discover new regularities, or symmetries, or repetitions, over time. It can learn to encode the data with fewer computational resources — fewer storage cells, or less time to compute the whole thing. What used to be conscious during learning becomes automated and subconscious over time.
As the network makes progress, and learns a new regularity, it can measure the depth of its new insight by looking at how many computational resources the unsupervised world model needs to encode the data before it learns that and afterwards. The difference between before and after: That is the “fun” that the network has. The depth of its insight, which is a number, goes straight to the first net, the controller, which has the task to maximize all the reward signals — including reward signals coming from such internal joy moments, from insights the network didn’t have before. A joy moment, like that of a scientist who discovers a new, previously unknown physical law.
Can you help me understand all that processing within the context of my own consciousness and experience
Lead your armies to claim the throne in Stormfall: Age of War! Only the bravest will survive and succeed in this medieval online strategy game
As you are walking through the world, you are encountering lots of faces of humans, which means that it’s really efficient for you to compactify, to compress your observation history by constructing, in your brain, some sort of recurrent sub-network. A “face encoder,” which corresponds to something like a prototype face. When a new face comes along, all you have to do is encode the deviations from the prototype.
I’m still not sure why we can say that it’s conscious, though.
One important thing about consciousness is that the agent, as it is interacting with the world, will notice that there is one thing that is always present as it is interacting with the world — which is the agent itself.
For data compression reasons, it’s really efficient for the recurrent world-model network to set a couple of neurons aside to encode this agent itself. It will be able to better compress the entire history of actions and perceptions by creating a symbol of itself, and additional symbols for things that belong to the agent: Maybe the hands, and the feet, and whatever. During the search for a solution to a new problem, whenever you wake up these neurons that are responsible for that self-symbol, then the guy, the agent, is basically thinking of itself.
So we have had that since 1991. Sure, it’s just a rudimentary form of consciousness — not as impressive as your own, because your brain is much bigger than the brains of our little artificial agents. You have maybe 100,000 billion connections in your cortex, while today’s largest LSTM networks — long short-term memory networks — have maybe only a billion connections. So your cortex is still 100,000 times larger, and the consciousness that can be carried by it is more impressive than what we can fit into our little artificial brains. However, we just take notice that every five years, computing gets 10 times cheaper. So maybe we’ll need only another 25 years until — for the first time — we will have rather cheap LSTM networks which have as many connections as your entire cortex.
And these cortex connections are much slower than the electronic connections of our artificial brains.
Schmidhuber with an android.
In the technical jargon, the real challenge is known as the “hard problem of consciousness.” It’s the what it’s like of experience, which philosophers tend to call “qualia.” When you have an experience — when you watch a sunset, listen to your favorite band play your favorite song, smell a cappuccino, and so on — there’s something it’s like for you to have that experience. It’s just not clear why. Philosopher David Chalmers, who identified this as the “hard problem,” put it this way: “Why should physical processing give rise to a rich inner life at all?” Are you confident that this model also reproduces the qualia — the what it’s like — for these A.I.s?
I do think so, yes. Behaviorally, our A.I.s are quite similar. When we confront them with other A.I.s who can hurt them — in predator-prey scenarios, for example — they don’t like to get hurt. Whenever one A.I. hits another A.I., whose pain sensors go up — this is something that the second A.I. can learn to predict and avoid, say, by hiding behind the curtain, or the equivalent in the simulation. So, of course, from the behavior of the agent, you see that it doesn’t like that.
That’s what we have seen for a long time. Our A.I.s try to avoid pain, and they try to maximize pleasure — including fun, or internal joy, from insights into patterns — because they have a built-in utility function or reward function that they want to maximize. Humans also have such a reward function, already built-in as babies. And the behavior of these artificial beings is at least qualitatively similar to what we see in higher level animals, or in humans, and so on. So there is no reason whatsoever to believe that this is not replicable.
It’s almost like you’ve invented a new language for discussing our own minds. When you introspect, do you think as if you were a computer? Are you thinking, “My higher level brain is dealing with this problem, while my lower level brain is running through these automatic processes?” Do you introspect in that way?
Yeah. I often think about whether these insights, derived from first principles, whether I can rediscover them in my own thinking, and I believe I can, although I am aware that many people have been fooled by introspection. But it seems pretty obvious to me: That’s more or less what I’m doing. To me, it’s not obvious that there is a need for something else to explain consciousness. I’m pretty convinced that all the basic ingredients to understand consciousness are there, and have been there for a quarter-century. It’s just that people in neuroscience who maybe don’t know so much about what is going on in artificial neural network research, they are not yet so aware of these simple basic principles. But I’m sure they will learn more about that. At least that’s what I’m hoping is going to happen.
Recently in New York, I spoke about this at a conference about ethics and A.I. I replied to a provocative question from the audience by repeating more or less what I have told smaller audiences since the 1980s: “I have to make a confession: My company is making androids. I am a prototype. I may not have consciousness, but I am good at faking it.”

A bizarre new theory suggests that a mysterious anomaly discovered in the Antarctic may hide a Nazi UFO base.
The theory comes from a team of UFO Hunters, who claim that the Nazis built secret bases in Antarctica during World War 2 that were designed to be used by UFOs.
The huge, mysterious Antarctic anomaly stretches for a distance of around 150 miles (240 km) across and reaches a maximum depth of around 850 metres (2,790 feet).

A bizarre new theory suggests that a strange anomaly discovered in the Antarctic (pictured) may hide a Nazi UFO base. A team of UFO Hunters claim in a YouTube video posted this week that Nazis built secret UFO bases in Antarctica during World War 2
LINKS BETWEEN CONSPIRACY, NARCISSISM AND SELF-ESTEEM
Over the course of three online-based studies, researchers at the University of Kent showed strong links between the belief in conspiracy theories and these psychological traits.
The results showed that those people who rated highly on the narcissism scale and who had low self-esteem were more likely to be conspiracy believers.
However, while low self-esteem, narcissism and belief in conspiracies are strongly linked, it is not clear that one - or a combination - causes the other.
But it hints at an interesting new angle to the world of conspiracy and those who reinforce belief.
It is found in an area of frozen wasteland in Antarctica known as Wilkes Land.
The UFO Hunters making the bold claims, dubbed 'SecureTeam10', regularly post videos on alien conspiracies.
Speaking of the Antarctic anomaly, they say: 'To this day, scientists have no idea or way to discover exactly what is buried deep under this thick ice shelf.
'This continent has been shrouded in a mystery of its own for years now.'
And on the strange Nazi UFO base theory, they claim in their video: 'There is some evidence of this coming to light in recent years, with images purporting to show various entrances built into the side of mountains, with a saucer shape and at a very high altitude.
'This begs the question: how would you enter these entrances without something that could fly and was the same shape as the hole itself?'
The conspiracy theorists also discuss the possibility that the US Navy led a mission to investigate the mysterious anomaly.
They claim that the mission was dubbed 'Operation High Jump', which some conspiracy theorists think was an attempt to find the entrance to a hidden world beneath Earth.
The strange shape beneath Antarctica was first found by Nasa satellite imagery in 2006.

Some researchers believe the anomaly is the result of an asteroid impact twice the size of the one that wiped out the dinosaurs.
'This Wilkes Land impact is much bigger than the impact that killed the dinosaurs, and probably would have caused catastrophic damage at the time,' said Ralph von Frese, who was a professor of geological sciences at Ohio State University when he discovered the crater in 2006.
'All the environmental changes that would have resulted from the impact would have created a highly caustic environment that was really hard to endure.
'So it makes sense that a lot of life went extinct at that time.'

This is not the first time that a strange UFO conspiracy has arisen from Antarctica's icy depths.
Earlier this year, a strange theory claiming that there is a mysterious pyramid in the Antarctic emerged.
Conspiracy theorists posted a video on YouTube, in which they claimed that US Secretary of State, John Kerry, visited Antarctica last month to visit an 'alien base' within the pyramid.
This is not the first time that a strange UFO conspiracy has arisen from Antarctica's icy depths. Earlier this year, a strange theory claiming that there is a mysterious pyramid in the Antarctic emerged
The video suggested that the images had been taken from Google Earth, but it is unclear whether they had been edited.
The video was posted by Third Phase of the Moon, another YouTube channel that regularly posts conspiracy theories on aliens.
It showed a pyramid-like structure in the snow, with a Google Earth-type label and pin.
The label read 'Antartica Pyramid' – a misspelling of Antarctica, which suggests that the image was likely doctored.

It is unclear what the structure could be, but it looks similar to a nunatak – a natural mountain peak that juts up above glaciers.
Nigel Watson, author of the UFO Investigations Manual, told MailOnline: 'Pictures of the pyramid structures are either photoshopped, cropped pictures to make the mountains look more like pyramids or simply pictures of natural formations called nunataks.
'They are mountainous formations created by shifting glaciers and erosion, not by laser zapping aliens'.

Scientists plan on contacting the closest Earth-like exoplanet to our Solar System
Hi, neighbour.
DAVID NIELD
Scientists are making preparations to send a transmission toProxima b - the closest Earth-like exoplanet to our Solar System.
The team is putting together a plan to build or buy a powerful deep-space transmitter, and is now figuring out what our message should be - after all, we don't want to make a bad first impression.
"If we want to start an exchange over the course of many generations, we want to learn and share information," president of the San Francisco-based Messaging Extraterrestrial Intelligence (METI) organisation, Douglas Vakoch, told The Mercury News.
METI's plan is similar to that of the former NASA mission, Project Cyclops, which was backed by the space agency but shelved in the 1970s due to a lack of funding.
Project Cyclops proposed patching together a network of radio telescopes on Earth to reach out as far as 1,000 light-years into space, and METI has similar ambitions.
The non-profit organisation is planning a series of workshops and a crowdfunding drive to make the scheme a reality - and it's estimated they'll need to raise around US$1 million a year to run the transmitter.
By 2018, the team wants to have laser or radio signals beamed out to Proxima b, which orbits Proxima Centauri - the closest star to our Solar System, at around 4.25 light-years away.
Part of METI's work will be to figure out what we should say, and to consider the possibility that other lifeforms will have developed the same mathematical laws and scientific hypotheses that we have.
The researchers at METI also want to reassess the Drake equation, written in 1961 by astrophysicist Frank Drake to calculate how many other civilisationsthere could be in the Universe, based on factors like star formation rates and the ratio of planets to stars.
But not everyone agrees that broadcasting our existence into the unknown is a such a good idea: in a recent paper in Nature Physics, physicist Mark Buchanan argued that we might be "searching for trouble" if we start flinging messages out into space.
Stephen Hawking agrees, recently arguing that it's too risky to try and chat to civilisations that are probably far more advanced than we are - lifeforms that could have the same opinion of us that we have of bacteria.
Despite the opposition, the experts at METI are convinced that the benefits of reaching out into space and learning more about our place in the Universe outweigh the risks.
"Perhaps for some civilisations... we need to take the initiative to make first contact," Vakoch writes in Nature Physics.
"The role of scientists is to test hypotheses. Through METI we can empirically test the hypothesis that transmitting an intentional signal will elicit a reply."
It won't be the first time we've sent messages out into the void, but METI is planning communications that are more regular and will reach further than ever before.
Perhaps the best argument for METI's scheme is that someone needs to make the first move, as astronomer Andrew Fraknoi from Foothill College in California, told The Mercury Times.
"If everyone who can send a message decides only to receive messages, it will be a very quiet galaxy," he says.
In 1799, the noted geographer, naturalist and explorer Alexander von Humboldt was looking at the stars with the naked eye, as he often did, and noticed that some of them were moving. He called the movement of the stars "Sternschwanken" ("swinging stars" in German). It wasn't until 58 years later that another German, a psychologist, figured out that it wasn't the stars that were moving, it was the eye of the beholder perceiving movement when there was none.
The autokinetic effect is just one of the many optical illusions that ultimately help us understand how the human eye and brain work together in perception. In the case of autokinesis, a small, stationary point of light (or an object) in an otherwise dark and featureless environment seems to jump around when its focused on (as in a star in the night sky). This light source could be a distant star, a far-off spotlight, a bright-enough fire — or even a lightly colored shape in front of a dark background. Plenty of stars or other bright lights have been reported as UFOs due to the autokinetic effect.
But why do we see these objects as moving when they're not?
Some have suggested that very small, involuntary movements of the eye are to blame, while more recent research has pointed out that the perception mistake might be in the brain, not the eye. (Autokinesis has been reported by scientists in people whose eyes are completely still.) The human eye uses surrounding objects as reference when focusing on a distant object, when there is a lack them, the point is undefined. Since the brain can't define the position of the object relative to others properly, it moves around, trying to figure out the error.
MNN's own Russell McLendon experienced the effect, describing it this way: "My wife and I think we saw it during a trip to the Grand Canyon. It was a cloudy night, so barely any stars were visible, and we were on the South Rim looking across this huge, dark expanse. We first noticed a campfire dancing around on the canyon floor, but then we noticed similar movements in the only star we could see overhead. That was when we realized it was some kind of illusion, so we started Googling until we figured out it was probably this auto-kinetic effect."
Now that you know about the effect, you can have a little fun with it. Scientists have also found that people's perception of the movement is open to suggestion. You can let a friend who is staring up at the stars with you know that a specific one is moving in a certain way (a circle, or jumping around), and it's pretty likely that their own autokinetic effect will manifest that way. It can work with the naked eye, but for best results, look through a tube (like a toilet paper or paper towel tube) at one particular star.
UFO (Unidentified Flying Object) sightings aren’t new, but the recently cited huge and triangular UFO in Columbus, Ohio is grabbing special attention from curious minds.
The Witness description of the UFO
The alleged UFO was spotted on November 29, 2016, by the witness while driving on Highway 2-75. Mutual UFO Network reported that the UFO was described as a cylindrical-like ship with white, green, and red lights by the witness. As the UFO came close to the witness, its triangular shape started to take form.
According to the eyewitness, the UFO was gigantic in size with a triangular shape. Other details revealed blackish-grey color with red lights. The user also spotted white lights on the corners of the triangular-shaped UFO. Initially, he thought it was an airplane that was crashing, but as the object came closer, he knew it wasn’t a plane and something else.

The reason this UFO sighting is gathering so much attention is the close vicinity with the other UFO sightings in the past. There were reports of UFO sighting in Reno, Nevada earlier, which is pretty close to Columbus, Ohio, specifically the Patterson Air Force Base. Since the locations are close to military base, it’s quite natural to suspect that the said spotting could be an UFO.
Hanger 18 and other similar incidents
Wright-Patterson Air Force Base is alleged to be the home of “Hanger 18” and is allegedly housing UFO wreckage and a possible operable spacecraft. So queries about the Air Force Base being something more than what it seems have started to appear.
A similar UFO citing was reported in Los Angeles, California. All these citings have quite a similar description of the UFO with triangular shape and lights, as reported by Inquisitr.
Do let us know what you make of these UFO citings in the comments section below. Are they real or the Air Base is up to something?
For years around campfires and over holiday meals, I’ve heard tales of UFOs in New York’s Finger Lakes.
I’ve heard stories of bright objects descending from the skies and entering the waters of one lake or another. I’ve also heard accounts of bright objects exiting the waters of a lake and flying off into the wild blue yonder. I’ve even read a few tales attributed to Native American lore of bright objects leaving our lovely Finger Lakes for the heavens.
Unfortunately too many of the accounts are secondhand or so are old they qualify as legend. This makes investigation and research very difficult. Using statistics from my U.S. UFO magnitude study, I’ve compiled a chart of the counties that surround the core of New York’s Finger Lakes region. The idea was to see how the Finger Lakes region compared to the well-known Erie Lake region in terms of UFO sighting reports.
The Finger Lakes counties total 14 and are as follows: Cayuga, Cortland, Monroe, Ontario, Tioga, Wayne, Chemung, Livingston, Onondaga, Steuben, Schuyler, and Yates.
Using data from my study, I compiled the chart above. The UFO sightings were reported in a period from 2001 through 2015. During the sample window, New York state logged 5,141 UFO sighting reports. The 14 counties that make up the Finger Lakes region logged 684 UFO sighting reports. As shown on the chart, the sightings tend to follow a seasonal reporting pattern.
Erie and Niagara counties, which log the lion’s share of the Erie Lake effect sighting cluster, only logged 447 UFO sighting reports for the same sample period.
At first glance, most of the Finger Lakes region counties have relatively low sighting reports. The exception is Monroe County, which reports 236 sighting reports for the sample period.
As a UFO researcher, I was rather surprised by the magnitude of the Finger Lakes numbers. Taken as a whole, New York’s Finger Lakes region hosts 13 percent of the states total UFO sightings. That is the largest concentration in the state, second only to Long Island.

VIDEO: Is op deze foto het bewijs van leven op Mars te zien?
VIDEO:Is op deze foto het bewijs van leven op Mars te zien?
De nieuwste ontdekking van een groep UFO-jagers die onderzoek doen naar foto’s van Mars houdt de gemoederen nogal bezig.
Op de beelden, die afkomstig zijn van de Amerikaanse ruimtevaartorganisatie NASA, is iets te zien wat doet denken aan een lepel, zo schrijft de Britse Daily Mail.
Tweede keer
De UFO-jagers zien er bewijs voor intelligent leven in. De structuur kan onmogelijk in de natuur zijn ontstaan, zo beweren ze.
Het is al de tweede keer dat er een ‘lepel’ op de rode planeet is gevonden.
Optische illusie
Volgens sommigen blijkt hieruit dat er leven is op Mars, hoewel anderen sceptischer zijn en denken dat het gaat om een optische illusie.
“Sommige mensen zien een lepel op Mars, anderen zien het gezicht van Jezus in hun theekopje,” reageerde iemand.

UFO'S VERSCHIJNEN IN BEELD OP ARGENTIJNSE TELEVISIE ( VIDEO )
Nog steeds schijnt de “normale reactie” op waarnemingen van vreemde objecten in de lucht te zijn dat er lacherig gedaan hoort te worden.
Als je niet schaapachtig begint te lachen en flauwe grapjes maakt bij een UFO verhaal, dan denken je vrienden straks nog dat je in aliens gelooft.
Eén van de grootste problemen met serieus onderzoek naar het UFO fenomeen en buitenaards leven is Youtube.
Youtube is een complete industrietak geworden voor mensen die maar één doel hebben en dat is zoveel mogelijk hits c.q. reclame inkomsten scoren met hun video’s en of hetgeen ze vertonen nu wel of niet echt is, zal ze een biet zijn.
Waarschijnlijk zijn dan ook 98 procent van alle video’s die daar verschijnen direct in de prullenbak te gooien en ook bij de resterende 2 procent zitten nog genoeg nepvideo’s, maar die zijn dan wat moeilijker te ontdekken.
Daarom is het altijd interessant als er beelden verschijnen waarvan aangenomen kan worden dat het wat moeilijker is om daarmee te knoeien, zoals een opname gemaakt van een televisiescherm waar je in de achtergrond duidelijk UFO’s ziet vliegen.
Op 12 december 2016 werd een programma uitgezonden op televisie in de Argentijnse stad Buenos Aires waar vreemde dingen te zien waren. Hieronder zie je de video met de opname van het televisiescherm, met de stem van de commentator en de UFO’s die in de achtergrond verschijnen.
Wat niet duidelijk is, is of deze UFO’s zijn opgemerkt in de studio en er wat over wordt gezegd, of dat het een opname is die gemaakt is door een oplettende kijker.
De beelden uit Argentinië komen erg overeen met die die een dag later, 13 december 2016, zijn gemaakt in Oekraïne.
Volgens de berichten zouden er meerdere mensen zijn die dit hebben vastgelegd.
Zo te zien is de opname gemaakt door een man die op de weg reed, zijn auto stilzette, zijn knipperlichten aan deed en begon met filmen.
Ook deze video heeft alle kenmerken van een echte opname en wie weet hebben we hier te maken met hetzelfde fenomeen als te zien was op de Argentijnse televisie.
Misschien wordt 2017 wel het jaar waarbij de gemeenschap een beetje volwassener omgaat met al die (tot nu toe onverklaarbare) waarnemingen die worden gedaan door mensen.
Waarbij zij dan niet worden afgeschilderd als aluhoedjes die ze zien vliegen, maar dat de wereld eindelijk beseft dat er ondanks alle nepopnames er talloze echte zijn waarvoor simpelweg geen verklaringen zijn.
Tenminste, geen verklaringen die passen in het mainstream verhaal.

UFO hunters secureteam10 posted a video of the events to their YouTube channel – which was seen more than 45,000 times in less than 24 hours.
The channel said: “We had a fleet of these unknown lights that were appearing in multiple cities across the country of Turkey, causing mass panic for many people.”
3. HOVERING LIGHTS IN CANADA
A shocking video shows four lights hovering in formation in the sky before one suddenly disappears from view.
A terrified man claims in the footage that he was followed by the UFOs for 12 miles down the highway in Brandon, Canada.
The city recorded 30 sightings last year.
In the video the man can be heard saying: “I am shaking right now.”
4. MYSTERIOUS OBJECT TRAVELLING 10,000MPH
A US Air Force veteran, 59, sent this video to Mutual UFO Network for investigation and they were shocked what it contains.
The network, who sent it on to NASA for further study, claims the mysterious object was filmed flying around 50 feet off the ground at huge speeds.
The American said: “This footage took me aback. I was flying my aerial camera from Ayden District Park. The skies were clear with unlimited visibility.
“During these 10 frames of viewing, this object travels three-quarter to one mile in one-third of a second – about 10,000 mph.”
5. ALIENS WATCH THE FOOTIE
Several witnesses recorded photo and video evidence of a mysterious disc-shaped object flying over the La Praille region of Geneva.
The object has three distinct lights and hovered over the Geneva stadium – where Servette FC play their home games – for over 20 seconds.
Some of the footage appears to show the UFO emitting an ear-piercing “shrill noise”.
Among the amazed witnesses was Uruguayan footballer Matias Vitkieviez, who posted photographic evidence to Facebook with the question: “Everyone sees the same thing as me?”
6. UFO BASE AT ERUPTING VOLCANO
This bizarre clip seemingly shows a “alien spacecraft” flying out of the side of the mountain.
As lava spews out of the mouth of the volcano, a bright light is seen moving off into the night sky.
It occurred at the Colima Volcano in Mexico which is known for its frequent UFO activity.
One commented on YouTube: “Wonder how fast it was going.”
7. FLYING CIGAR ABOVE MANCHESTER
A small, pipe-shaped object can be seen floating around the clear blue sky in Denton, Manchester.
Perhaps this isn’t that surprising – Manchester was named the UFO capital of Britain earlier this year.
Adorned with lights that flash from white, to blue, to purple, the mysterious object is long and narrow like a cigar, rather than the disc-shape commonly associated with UFOs.
Posting the clip on social media, the man who took the video wrote: “Knowing how high it appeared in the sky, I’m guessing its size was massive.
8. FISHERMAN FREAKED BY FLYING CRAFT
These Brazilian fishermen probably hadn’t expected to run into a UFO during a twilight trawl out on the open water.
But that’s exactly what happened, according to this bizarre clip.
As the sun sets on a clear evening, the shape of a black orb silhouetted against the dusky skies can be clearly seen hovering on the horizon.
The video zooms in closer to the object, highlighting the unmistakable shape of a flying saucer slowly descending beyond the hills on the far side of the lake.
9. NEW YORK UFO
This video – uploaded to YouTube by UFO investigators Secure Team 10 – shows a huge, black object floating in the sky.
Passing motorists filmed the phenomenon and the sheer size of the object meant that it could also be seen from nearby New Jersey.
Tyler – from Secure Team – said the person who filmed the video had felt “vibrations” before the aircraft appeared.
He added: "He soon realised that this object was far too large to have been a banner of any kind and he also says that there was 'no plane in sight.’”
It may be three billion light-years away from Earth, but this distant constellation could be trying to contact us.
Six bursts of radio waves have been detected from the constellation Auriga, each lasting just a few milliseconds.
While the source of the waves remains unknown, some suggest they mysterious bursts of energy could be a sign of alien life trying to contact us.

WHAT ARE FAST RADIO BURSTS?
Fast radio bursts, or FRBs, are radio emissions that appear temporarily and randomly, making them not only hard to find, but also hard to study.
The mystery stems from the fact it is not known what could produce such a short and sharp burst.
This has led some to speculate they could be anything from stars colliding to artificially created messages.
The first FRB was spotted, or rather 'heard' by radio telescopes, back in 2007.
But it was so temporary and seemingly random that it took years for astronomers to agree it wasn't a glitch in one of the telescope's instruments.
The waves were detected by researchers from McGill University in Montreal, using the Green Bank Telescope in West Virginia, and at the Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico.
In their paper, published in The Astrophysical Journal, the researchers, led by Paul Scholz, wrote: 'We have detected six additional radio bursts from this source: five with the Green Bank Telescope at 2 GHz, and one at 1.4 GHz with the Arecibo Observatory, for a total of 17 bursts from this source.'
The detection follows 11 previously recorded outbursts from the same location, called FRB 121102.
This is the only known repeater of fast radio bursts (FRBs) - radio emissions that appear temporarily and randomly.
Despite there being a number of FRBs from the site, the origin of the bursts is an ongoing puzzle to researchers.
But the researchers say that the repeated outbursts imply that whatever is causing the radio bursts is not a one-time event, such as an explosion or collision.
Instead, they say that flares from a young neutron star – the dense core left behind where a star explodes – are a promising candidate.
The researchers added: 'Whether FRB 121102 is a unique object in the currently known sample of FRBs, or all FRBs are capable of repeating, its characterisation is extremely important to understanding fast extragalactic radio transients.'
The waves were detected by researchers from McGill University in Montreal, using the Green Bank Telescope in West Virginia (pictured), and at the Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico
Previously when waves have been detected, astronomers have also asked Seti (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) to take a closer look at whether they could be a message from ET.
But it is unclear if the McGill researchers will ask Seti to help this time.
If there are any intelligent alien life forms out there, Stephen Hawking thinks we're playing a dangerous game by trying to contact them.
The physicist believes if aliens discovered Earth, they are likely to want to conquer and colonise our planet.
'If aliens visit us, the outcome could be much like when Columbus landed in America, which didn't turn out well for the Native Americans,' he said in an interview.
In the 2016 film, Arrival, a linguist is hired by the military to assist in translating alien communications. But if there are any intelligent alien life forms out there, Stephen Hawking thinks we're playing a dangerous game by trying to contact them
But co-founder and former director of the Seti Institute, Jill Tarter, doesn't think this will be the case.
She argues any aliens who have managed to travel across the universe will be sophisticated enough to be friendly and peaceful.
'The idea of a civilisation which has managed to survive far longer than we have...and the fact that that technology remains an aggressive one, to me, doesn't make sense,' she said.

THE ART OF DECEPTION IN THE UFO COMMUNITY.
THE ART OF DECEPTION IN THE UFO COMMUNITY.
After almost three years in the UFO community iv notice one thing that keep coming back. That is how the community is filled with people who are only there to debunk the phenomena. To me that was as clear as a glass of water.. And why is that clear to me?
Well that’s pretty easy to be honest, because i look at the way people communicate with each other. It’s so easy to recognize a fallacy, non arguments or nonsense. And that seems to be the norm in the UFO community.
And not every comment of course, because many comments leads to new friendships. That’s how networks are made, based on the mutual respect and by talking to each other in a mature way. And if opinions are different, then those people always have the option to agree to disagree.
Unfortunately that is not common in the UFO community. Ridicule and non arguments brought in a negative way ,is more or less common behavior. And on top of that the witness get attacked by strangers.
In the beginning, that was a surprise to me, but then i started to see a pattern in comments ,what showed me there is a plan behind it. A master-plan what many people overlook. Iv notice the tactics ,when i saw specialists in some field brought non arguments, to prove a point, about some video or about an opinion. At first i thought, maybe that guy has a personal grudge on someone.
But real soon i noticed a pattern in different groups ,everywhere in the UFO community. I saw how some groups are organized or are infiltrated by people who don’t want the truth to come out. And the tactics they are using are this:
Ridicule. Verbal abuse. Organized attacks. Making hoax videos.
Infiltrating groups by staying silent or by using a non argument once a while, these guys are the ones who say…….. Wow icant believe he do something like that… ooo why do people do that… ooi hate people do that. They say those things, after someone is accusing anyone. They act like they have a wolf-pack and focus on a target and then they attack.
Il compare this situation by going into the ring for a box fight, against ten fighters all at once. That will always lead to a knockout or a complete destruction of the person. And unfortanly that is the way it’s going on, in the UFO community, and those groups are almost everywhere.
So, to me that was as clear as a glass of water, but i could not prove it with evidence. But now Ed Snowden released information about the way the NSA or secret service is working on the internet.
And not to my surprise, i found the document what shows that the NSA or secret service organised tactics to train there students, to infiltrate the internet, to spread disinformation and to debunk stories. That’s what is going on in the UFO community, and that is the reason we lack of data or information. Take a look for yourself here.
Because the wolf pack is out there between the sheep, and they dont look like a sheep, and lookmore like this.
So, if we want more answers about this phenomena, then we should focus on people who are really after the truth and then come together and create solid networks of individuals who are after the truth. And anyone who is using non arguments or talks in a negative way, should be ignore and removed from groups. Anyone with anonymous accounts with no friends, should not belong in groups or to be friends with.
Because the goal of those wolf packs are not to silent people, its more to mislead the people, that there is nothing out there. And that the people who claimed to see something, are simply sick or insane and maybe that worked in the past. But now in this age with internet and huge data and information around, we don’t need to accept that. If we really want the truth, then we should work more efficient and focus on communication between each other and we should put the dirt outside of the door.
Would this tactic bring more answers? I don’t know, i only know when people don’t get attacked and approach in a mature way, and when we talk about this subject in an intelligent way that we create a solid foundation to talk openly about this subject. And maybe then we can find more answers. But not in this situation and this situation will stay, unless we the creators of this community will change.
I start doing that, i don’t accept friendships from any stranger. And i do not share everything openly in public, i only tell details about my encounters to researchers or groups who do take it seriously. And on the same time i see all this as my personal journey in this life to discover the truth about our reality. That is the main reason i am doing this, and i think that is our birth right to do. We can either stay ignorant about our reality and accept what we know, or we go after the truth of this reality. And after iv seen what i had seen in the past, i can’t stay ignorant. Now i need to know the truth, but i also realize that i can’t find it on my own. I am convinced that we need everyone and every information to find the truth.
And that is the motive of those wolf packs, to destroy the research into the truth and we can’t let that happened.
Steetcap1 has done it again. He has found a remarkable disk in the Apollo moon archives. This disk does have smaller orbs attached to 3 sides of it, but one side has no orbs so I assume this is the cockpit viewing area or control bridge. Therefore the aliens were in perfect position to observe the actions of the Apollo17 astronauts. Scott C. Waring
Eyewitness states:
There is no proof that this is the same craft on these Apollo 17 archive pictures, but my guess is that it is, as it's similar in size and color etc... Streetcap1.
A UFO fell from the sky and smacked this guys van right in its end. The object, which is unidentified even though its in the hands of the police department, does look like it may be spent fuel tanks for a missile or rocket that may have broken up in the atmosphere. Also part of me wonders if this is a cloud orb thats been struck by lightening and fell to earth. Cloud orbs are alien drones that change color and are basically AI controlled alien drones the relay info back to the alien base or world. It doesn't seem to make sense for scientists to make a fuel tank from this black stringy substance. The video does not allow embedding, so you will have to click the original source above to view the TV news video of the event. Scott C. Waring
News states:
MILWAUKEE (WITI) -- Unidentified Falling Object -- it's a UFO that has one local man scratching his head. His van damaged by a large object, but so far, no one can say exactly what that object is. The damage is extensive, the owner of the van thinks the object fell from the sky. It's a mystery that plays out like an episode of "TheX-Files."
"I was like, what is that?! What happened?! I kept looking around and I couldn't see where it came from. It had to have come from the sky," said Michael Robinson. You could classify this case as an "X-Mas File" just days before the holiday and Marshall Robinson is getting a special delivery. Maybe it fell from Santa's sleigh, or maybe it came from space. "It's like a cone shape, but on the top it's heavy and inside it's hollow," said Robinson. Robinson says Tuesday he got a call from his neighbor. "She heard a loud 'thump,' she was looking out the window," said Robinson.
He saw his van with a huge gash. "There was no footprints around or nothing," Robinson said. The rear window shattered and an odd object was found next to it. "It looked like a barbecue grill in the snow," Robinson said. Robinson has been racking his brain all week trying to figure out what caused so much damage. "It's a round-something, looks like it might be the cover to an engine or something," said Robinson. Robinson called Milwaukee police. "They was baffled," Robinson said. "They couldn't figure out where it came from." Robinson says police noted it smelled like diesel fuel, and took the heavy object as evidence. No one could have thrown this, based on the damage, Robinson is convinced the object dropped from above. "That's a lot of force to put a dent in the top of the van like this," said Robinson. For now, the chunk of metal is unidentified, unexplained and now most certainly unforgettable.
Bigger than Roswell: Top Secret CIA docs unearth hidden UFO encounters
Bigger than Roswell: Top Secret CIA docs unearth hidden UFO encounters
Highly classified documents regarding UFOs and Alien life have emerged from the 1050’s exposing shocking truth about alien UFO’s visiting our planet.
The shocking truth about alien life and alien spacecraft are detailed in a catalogue of ‘unexpected’ highly classified documents from the CIA, detailing encounters with flying saucers and Aliens.
The reports, which go back decades, describe witnesses who were left stunned by the complexity and capabilities of fast-moving spacecraft through the skies. Among the details of alien spacecraft are descriptions of enigmatic encounters with beings not from Earth, and mysterious noises which have been recorded from space.
The mysterious accounts are considered as unprecedented by many and are considered to be far more important than what occurred in Roswell.
A declassified file from 1952 provides the sworn testimony of former mayor of Gleimershausen in Germany, Oskar Linke who describes how he spotted two beings in metallic clothing standing next to a huge spaceship. (source)
“The object rose to a horizontal position,” he said, “turned toward a neighboring town, and then disappeared from the heights and forests.”
He added: “I would have thought that both my daughter and I were dreaming if it were not for the following element involved.
“When the object had disappeared, I went to the place where it had been.
“I found a circular opening in the ground and it was quite evident that it was freshly dug, it was exactly the same shape as the conical tower,” testified Linke.
The declassified documents note that many other people from the area reported and sam the same comet-like object in the sky.
Another file which has been made available to the public describes yet another incredible UFO encounter that took place over a uranium mine in what was then, the Belgian Congo. The two fiery disks glided in what is described as ‘elegant curves’, before abruptly stopping in mid-air, and taking off in a zig-zag fashion.
Former Commander Pierre, the pilot who flew after the two ‘alien’ objects from an airfield located near Elisabethville, modern-day Lubumbashi even sketched the objects trying to depict what he witnessed.
According to Commander Pierre – who is described as being a “dependable officer” – both objects moved an incredible speed of around 900mph.
However, the reports are numerous. Another interesting account took place in Barcelona when a strange object soaring over Spain was seen while emitting mysterious flashes of light. According to Valentin Garcia, a journalist who witnessed the mysterious encounter: “The newspaper office was soon flooded with telephone calls from people who had seen the object.”
In following weeks, more sightings of a similar object were seen over Algeria and Tunisia and Meknes, Taourirt and Casablanca in Morocco.
However, not only has the CIA admitted recording UFO sightings and unexplained phenomena that could not have been caused by any known force on planet Earth. The Federal Bureau of Investigation has also admitted we have been ‘visited’ in the distant past.
According to a document made available from the FBI archives found here we have been visited by beings from ‘other’ dimensions. According to reports and “Declassified” documents, we have been visited by numbs extraterrestrial species, some of these, are not only from other planets but from other dimensions. Some of these beings originate from an ethereal plane coexistent with our physical universe. These “entities”, that could “materialize” on our planet appeared as giant translucent figures.

UFO And Alien Egyptian Artifacts Discovered In Jerusalem Kept Secret By Rockefeller Museum
UFO And Alien Egyptian Artifacts Discovered In Jerusalem Kept Secret By Rockefeller Museum
Alien and UFO circles are abuzz with claims of remarkable ancient Egyptian artifacts discovered in the former Jerusalem home of the famous Egyptologist Sir William Petrie, items that “could rewrite ancient Egyptian history” and indeed the history of the world.
A YouTube video released by the website Paranormal Crucible purports to show ancient Egyptian sculpture artifacts originally found in the “Giza complex,” but reportedly taken away from Petrie’s Jerusalem home by representatives of the Rockefeller Archaeological Museum shortly after they were found.
According to the Shepard Ambellas, editor-in-chief of the “alternative news” website Intellihub News, the alien Egyptian artifacts were discovered hidden in a secret room behind the Egyptologist’s bookcase. Petrie had apparently found proof of extraterrestrial life on Earth before he died in 1942, but chose to hide them away in his Jerusalem home. Now that the Rockefeller Museum has taken possession of the artifacts, alien and UFO pundits fear they may never be accessible to the public.
However, Ambellas claims that some of the relics may be seen at the Petri Museum of Egyptian Archaeology in Malet Place, Camden, near Gower Street, London.
The Inquisitr was able to confirm that the prestigious Petri Museum of Egyptian Archaeology has in its possession a vast collection of ancient Egyptian and Sudanese artifacts, including ancient Egyptian “firsts,” such as the “oldest linen” and “oldest dress” from ancient Egypt (5,000 B.C.). The museum also displays lion sculptures from the temple of Min in Koptos and the earliest known products of metallurgy from the ancient civilization. However, The Inquisitr was unable to confirm that the museum has on display “alien Egyptian artifacts” recovered from a secret room in Petrie’s former home in Jerusalem.
But believers will assume that the more sensitive relics of alien origins are being kept from the public.
Ambella claims that the alien Egyptian artifacts allegedly found in Petrie’s former Jerusalem home, which link the ancient Egyptian civilization to an advanced ET civilization, include two mummified bodies less than four feet in height. Although dwarfs and pygmies captured in the interior of Africa were held in high esteem as “celestial beings” in the Old Kingdom era of ancient Egypt and served in high positions, Ambella speculates that these four-foot creatures are “possibly alien in nature,” and thus literally of “celestial” origins.
Dwarfish Figures In Ancient Egyptian Hieroglyph Stone
Details of the physical features of the mummified bodies appear to support the suggestion that they were “possibly alien in nature.” According to Ambellas, the skeletons have stereotypical alien “elongated heads, large eye sockets, and long spinally arms.”
The Aliens Have “Elongated Heads, Large Eye Sockets, And Long Spinally Arms.”
Equally interesting were the “highly advanced” mechanical devices, including a disc of gold with a transparent top found with the alien bodies. According to Ambella, the high-tech devices have “an intricate mechanism which is surrounded by gold spiral tubing that has several small gold orbs and crosses attached to it.” The devices had non-ancient Egyptian symbols on them, as can be seen in the image below.
Alien Technological Gadget Could Be Navigational Device
Are these alien interstellar navigational devices? Well, they might be, judging from the fact that the relics also included stone tablets that “appear to show alien spacecraft,” according to Ambella.
This is not the first time that archaeologists have found ancient Egyptian stone tablets bearing inscriptions suggestive of alien spacecraft and other sophisticated and advanced machinery. The image below shows the famous “Helicopter Hieroglyphs” recovered from a temple in Abydos, Egypt, showing what appears to be modern aircraft.
Helicopter Hieroglyphs: The Inscriptions Appear To Represent Modern Aircraft.
Although scientists have attributed the “aircraft” interpretation of these inscriptions to the psychological phenomenon called pareidolia, the belief is widespread in alien and UFO enthusiast circles that these hieroglyph inscriptions are proof of alien pilots and astronauts who contacted ancient human civilizations and influenced the cultural and technological development of early human societies.
And indeed, the precocity of the ancient Egyptian civilization appears to make the alien contact theory credible to ET and UFO enthusiasts, who believe that aliens built such architectural marvels as the Pyramid of Giza long before the ancient Egyptian civilization emerged.
Several UFO and alien news websites reported in November of 2010 that Dr. Alaaeldin Shaheen, Dean of the Faculty of Archaeology, Cairo University, admitted, in response to a question about the ET links of the pyramids, that the ancient Egyptian pyramids are “not of this world.”
“I can not confirm or deny this, but there is something inside the pyramid that is ‘not of this entire world.’”
“I did not give such stupid statement[s] about aliens and Pyramids. As [I am] Egyptologist I could [not] say such stupid words and ideas.”
Needless to say, such denials don’t impress UFO and ET believers, who see evidence of “cover up” conspiracies when officials and academics deny revealing statements earlier ascribed to them.
UFO and ET pundits continue to debate why Sir William Petrie and his colleagues kept these remarkable alien Egyptian artifacts secret and did not release them to the “general public.”

Project SIGMA, or How They Began Selling Your Genome to the Greys
Project SIGMA, or How They Began Selling Your Genome to the Greys
After shooting down several extraterrestrial flying vehicles and acquiring the advanced technology they carried on-board, the government deemed it very profitable to establish communication channels with the foreign entities. After all, amassing alien hi tech would grant the US technological superiority both in military and intelligence circles.
One of the first projects to deal with this situation was Project SIGMA, a joint operation established in 1952 by the NSA/CIA consortium. Ufologists refer to this venture using many monikers, including the TAU IX Treaty for the Preservation of Mankind (as Dr. Dan Burisch calls it), the Greada Treaty or the Edwards Agreement, named after the air force base where the monumental meeting reportedly took place. Its main objective was to pave the way for meaningful and productive communications between humans and aliens.
Using technology we would now call rudimentary, Project Sigma scientists managed to pinpoint the relative location of a suspicious group of asteroids moving in an orderly fashion. Using the telecommunications equipment developed using the technology aboard the downed UFOs, a transmission was sent in their general direction. The reply did not take long and a meeting was scheduled.
However, the message was also intercepted by another extraterrestrial presence that kept a close eye on our planet. A Nordic species known as The Blues contacted the humans and advised them not to enter any arrangements with the force that had moved from the outskirts of the solar system into an equatorial orbit around Earth. They warned us about the other alien species and the fact that they only serve themselves.
The Blues refused to offer us any of their technology. Instead, the Blues offered to support us in our spiritual development but asked something in return: that mankind collectively dismantled their nuclear arsenal. As a young species, they said, we were not qualified to wield such power of our own making and even less capable to act responsibly if given alien military technology. We would only use it to bring destruction upon ourselves. They warned humanity about its path of self destruction and condemned the fact that we were killing each other, polluting the planet and wasting Earth’s natural resources.
The committee met their demands with extreme suspicion and prejudice, believing that nuclear disarming was not in the best interest of the United States and that it would leave the world helpless in the face of an alien threat. Naturally, some power-hungry high-ranking official dismissed their offer and attention was focused on getting that sweet, sweet alien tech.
The diplomatic relations endeavor came to fruition on April 25, 1954, when key figures within the US Government and emissaries of the species we would later call the Tall Greys broke bread for the first time at Edwards AFB in southern California. Other sources claim the meeting actually took place two months earlier at Holloman Air Force Base, six miles SW of Alamogordo, New Mexico. But we’re not here to argue logistics and locations. What really matters is the outcome of the deal struck with the grey aliens.
The information exchange was done telepathically between representatives of both worlds. It is unclear what the aliens’ true motivation was but the reason they invoked was genetic in nature.
The Greys revealed to their human counterparts that their DNA was of suffering extreme degradation. As a species, they were dying and were in desperate need of a solution to overcome the situation. They required complete and unrestricted access to the human genome in order to develop a stable method for human-grey hybridization and thus ensure their continued existence.
The Tall Greys claimed they wanted permission to abduct humans and perform genetic research without harming their ‘test subjects’. The humans, they promised, would be returned unscathed and with absolutely no memory of their ordeal. An agreement was reached following the discussions, one that would prove very lucrative for those involved. Unfortunately, the consequences would be disastrous for the rest of the world.
These are some of the conditions they imposed:
The United States would not reveal to the rest of the world any information about the Greys’ presence on Earth
Extraterrestrial operations would not be hindered and interference would not be tolerated
The US would oversee the construction of several underground bases. The bases would be operated by both human and Grey personnel. Initially, old Atomic Energy Commission underground bases were converted into working stations. When the operation began to grow in size, newer and larger facilities were built. It is unclear how many of them were constructed, but reports suggest 26 became operational in the Southwest alone.
The United States would allow the aliens to abduct a limited number of humans that were to be returned unharmed and with their memory wiped.
The aliens would decide who gets abducted but the list would need approval from the National Security Council.
The aliens would provide the US with advanced weaponry and assorted technology, gravitational and electromagnetic propulsion systems and mind control/alien implant technology.
Conspiracy theorists claim the deal was witnessed and signed by President Dwight Eisenhower. Their claims are supported by the fact that, while vacationing near Palm Springs CA, the president inexplicably went missing on the night of February 21-22 1954. It is speculated he was secretly taken to nearby Edwards Air Force base for an encounter with the Grey aliens. His official statement was that he had to undergo an emergency dental treatment and had visited a local dentist.
Over the years, many have claimed to have been present during negotiations and multiple confessions have surfaced since then. Among them is that of Gerald Light, at that time the leader of a famous metaphysical community. After allegedly attending the event, Light wrote:
“My dear friends: I have just returned from Muroc [Edwards Air Force Base]. The report is true — devastatingly true! During my two days’ visit I saw five separate and distinct types of aircraft being studied and handled by our Air Force officials — with the assistance and permission of the Etherians! I have no words to express my reactions. It has finally happened. It is now a matter of history.”
Unfortunately for us, it wouldn’t be long until the deal’s favorable conditions became history and the Greys would start infringing the treaty. The number of abductions quickly exceeded the agreed quota and more often than not, the experiments they performed ended badly for the unwilling human participants.
In the early 1960s, the US Government realized they had been duped and wanted to back out of the deal and kick the Greys off our planet, if possible. What they didn’t know was that the Tall Grey aliens had been around for quite some time and weren’t too keen on going anywhere.
Today, the UFO phenomenon is higher than ever, with more and more people coming forward with their admissions. Collective hallucinations inspired by the media or the harsh consequences of a bad deal struck with some shady aliens? Let us know in the comments!

European Probe Snaps Color Photos of Martian Moon Phobos
European Probe Snaps Color Photos of Martian Moon Phobos
By Christine Lunsford, Space.com Contributor
On November 26, 2016, ExoMars used its Color and Stereo Surface Imaging System to take this color composite of Mars' moon Phobos. The image consists of two images from each of the camera's four color filters — panchromatic, blue–green, red and infrared — resulting in the high-resolution composite.

The European Space Agency's Trace Gas Orbiter orbiting Mars has snapped its first views of Phobos, the largest of two moons circling the Red Planet.
The Trace Gas Orbiter, or TGO, is part of the European ExoMars exploration program and arrived in orbit around Mars on Oct. 19. The orbiter snapped the new views of Phobos during its second orbit Mars. It was the second half of a series of test science measurements, with the first half focused on Mars itselfduring its first orbit.
TGO captured the images used to make the composite view seen here while the probe was about 4,784 miles (7,700 kilometers) from Phobos. The camera collected two images with each of its four color filters which are optimized to show distinctions in the mineral makeup of the Martian satellite. These differences show up as the "bluer" or "redder" colors in the image. [Phobos and Deimos: Pictures of Mars' Moons]
By using images the blue-green and red filters, a 3D image was produced as well.
ExoMars orbiter's Color and Stereo Surface Imaging System composed this 3D image of Mars' moon Phobos from from the stereo pair of images collected with two of its four color filters.

"Although higher-resolution images of Phobos have been returned by other missions, such as ESA's Mars Express and NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, this provided a good test of what can be done with our data in a very short time," Nick Thomas, principal investigator of TGO's CaSSIS camera team at the University of Bern, said in a statement. "The images have given us a lot of useful information about the color calibration of the camera and its internal timing."
With testing of the ExoMars instruments underway, team members focus on getting the craft into it's near-circular science orbit by the end of 2017 through aerobraking.
The leading scientific goal for TGO's mission is to gather detailed records of rare gases in Mars' atmosphere — methane, water vapor, nitrogen dioxide and acetylene, which compose less than 1 percent of the atmosphere's volume.
Methane is of particular interest because Earth's methane is primarily produced thanks to biological activity, with some contributed by hydrothermal reactions. ExoMars also hopes to uncover whether water or ice exists just below the surface. Color and stereo images of the surface will aid in these findings.
TGO will serve as a data relay for current and future crafts on the surface of Mars, including the 2020 ExoMars mission featuring a rover and surface science platform.
